Next, carrying out following explanation with the structure for checking utensil 4 to image calibration in detail to Fig. 4 according to fig. 2.
As shown in Figures 2 and 3, image calibration checks that utensil 4 is whole and is difficult to the metal to get rusty by stainless steel etc. or is had Heat resistance, chemical-resistant resin formed so that have high pressure sterilization patience, the image calibration with check utensil 4 constitute It both sides is provided with the inspection utensil main part 31 of the rectangular shape of opening portion 32, is screwed on the inspection mainly to have The endoscope connection 33 of the tubular of the base end side in appliance body portion 31 and be screwed on check utensil main part 31 before The disk-shaped calibrating pattern plate 34 of end wall.
In this way, cleaning is become easy and there are opening portion 32, so as to prevent illumination light from checking appliance body The unnecessary reflection of the both sides in portion 31.
Endoscope connection 33 is formed at substantially equal intervals in the circumferential and (is here) three opening portions 35, opens at these The inclined claw 36 of radially inward is respectively arranged in oral area 35.
When the front end of endoscope 2 14 is inserted in endoscope connection 33, these claws 36 are to endoscope connection 33 Outer diameter direction flexible deformation and by the cardinal extremity of front end 14 it is circumferentially locking to by so-called buckle fixed form come mechanically Fixed (referring to Fig. 4).
In addition, front end 14 is fixed as front end face by endoscope connection 33 and checks the cardinal extremity opening of utensil main part 31 The wall portion 38 as abutting part around portion 37 abuts.In this way, claw 36 is there are 3 points, so as to stablize front end 14 Ground abuts.
It is installed on the front end 14 of the endoscope 2 of image calibration inspection utensil 4 as a result, from front end face to calibrating pattern plate Defined distance L until 34 is always constant.That is, endoscope 2 be installed on image calibration check utensil 4 when, with school Defined distance L between the calibrating pattern face 34a of quasi- pattern plate 34 be always it is constant, so as to by shooting be set to Aftermentioned calibrating pattern 40 on the 34a of calibrating pattern face and the calibration for accurately carrying out obtaining image.
It is screwed in the calibrating pattern plate 34 being disposed on the front end face for checking utensil main part 31 and checks utensil master When body portion 31, it is set to for two recess portions 39 of jig insertion as positive front end surface side.
As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6, which is arranged on the calibrating pattern face 34a in the cardinal extremity face as the back side So-called grid pattern will be arranged in by multiple marks 41 of the rectangular shape of the formation such as machining, laser marking by having In alternating clathrate as calibration mark calibrating pattern 40.
For each mark 41, the curve for making corner be formed as arc-shaped vertical two sides connection, so that phase Mark 41 in adjacent diagonal direction is separated from each other defined distance.
Thereby, it is possible to form mark 41 by various machinings, laser marking etc., without in adjacent diagonal side The shape of the deformation as caused by extruding, edge etc. is generated on the upward mutual corner of mark 41.
That is, being added when wanting to form the mutual corner of mark 41 in adjacent diagonal direction substantially by various machinery Work, laser marking etc. are come when forming the alternately calibrating pattern 40 of clathrate, the corner of two marks 41 is overlapped, to generate by squeezing The shape of deformation caused by pressure, edge etc..
In this way, when generating the shape of the deformation as caused by extruding, edge etc. on calibrating pattern 40, the photograph of endoscope 2 Mingguang City is reflected, and desired observation image can not be accurately obtained.Alternatively, corner is extruded, to make the detection accuracy in corner Deteriorate.
In addition, when the circular arc for increasing the corner for identifying 41 increases the mutual distance of mark 41 in adjacent diagonal direction When, it identifies 41 linear each side and shortens, so that the detection accuracy of calibrating pattern 40 be made to deteriorate.
In addition, when the mutual corner of mark 41 in adjacent diagonal direction is formed as overlapping, the side of two marks 41 Be not it is linear, the corresponding difference of width with overlapping is produced, therefore lose up rightness, without as calibrating pattern 40 Accurate function.
Therefore, multiple marks 41 of calibrating pattern 40 are formed to become the circular arc that corner is set to optimal radius of curvature The mode of the shape of shape is formed in the calibrating pattern face 34a of calibrating pattern plate 34 by various machinings, laser marking etc. On, so that respective linear each side arrangement has up rightness and with can be according to endoscope 2 on straight line The enough length for observing performance to be detected.
In addition, can not be examined by arranging multiple marks 41 even if leading to the mark 41 of a part because of defect or deterioration etc. It surveys, can also be detected by other identifier 41.At this point, the size of mark 41 needs to be set to the offset than hypothesis Greatly, so that being well mistakenly identified as other identifier.
Therefore, the calibrating pattern 40 of multiple marks 41 is arranged with so that there is no the illumination light of endoscope 2 is unnecessarily anti- The part for the deformation penetrated is formed in the calibration of calibrating pattern plate 34 so as to accurately detect the mode on each side of each mark 41 On pattern plane 34a.
In the following, in detail to the endoscope 2 of the endoscopic system 1 constituted above observation image calibration method into Row explanation.In addition, illustrating since endoscope 2 here is 3D endoscope to the inclined of the shooting optical axis of viewing optical system The method of shift-in row calibration.
Firstly, image calibration inspection utensil 4 to be installed on to the front end 14 of the insertion section 11 of endoscope 2.Moreover, passing through Endoscope 2 come shoot image calibration check utensil 4 calibrating pattern 40.
As shown in fig. 7, the imaging sensor of the photographic device of endoscope 2 is detected for example based on the first observation optical system First acquisition image-region Img1 of system and second based on the second viewing optical system obtain image-region Img2 and are input to Video processor 21.
At this point, the control unit in video processor 21 is set, so that cutting out from the first acquisition image-region Img1 The first image-region Cut1 and from second acquisition image-region Img2 cut out the respective center O1 of the second image-region Cut2, O2 is consistent.
From the state, control unit in video processor 21 is from the first image-region Cut1 and the second image-region Cut2 Select two 41 (A, B) of mark of calibrating pattern 40.
In addition, in the case where there is distortion in the optical characteristics of viewing optical system, from the aspect of calibration accuracy, The mark 41 to be selected preferably is selected from the mark close to center O1, O2 of respective image-region.
Moreover, as shown in figure 8, control unit is to linear two sides V1, H1 and second identifier 41 of first identifier 41 (A) (B) two linear sides V2, H2 are detected.
In addition, here, as the program detected to position, to identify the linear respective of 41 (A, B) to two The mode that is detected of side V1, V2, H1, H2 set the algorithm of cricoid search range S.
Control unit uses the side V1 and second in vertical direction of the cricoid search range S to detect first identifier 41 (A) Identify the while mark of H1 and second in the horizontal direction of the extended line and first identifier 41 (A) in V2 in the vertical direction of 41 (B) The position of the vertical intersection point P of the extended line of side H2 in the horizontal direction of 41 (B) of knowledge.
By the detection method, even if image calibration is with checking utensil 4 relative to the position in a rotational direction of endoscope 2 It is not determined, the intersection point P of mark 41 can be also detected by cricoid search range S.
Next, the position of the center O2 of the position of control unit antinode P and the second image-region Cut2 are relative to intersection point P The offset of position of center O1 of position and the first image-region Cut1 detected and be corrected so that the figure of a side As region is consistent with the image-region of another party.
Such as shown in figure 9, control unit is corrected to the center O1 and the second image-region Cut2 of the first image-region Cut1 The consistent position center O2 and change from the second position for cutting out acquisition image-region Img2.
In addition, above-mentioned control example is an example, such as can also be as shown in Figure 10, make the first image-region Cut1 and second Image-region Cut2 is aligned and changes from the position that the first acquisition image-region Img1 is cut out, such as can also be as shown in figure 11, The position of first image-region Cut1 and the second image-region Cut2 are changed together.
In addition, the amount of cutting out is less, therefore can effectively apply flexibly and cut out range if changing together.
Also, the control example of video processor 21 is illustrated, but not limited to this, such as can also be using such as Flowering structure: control unit is set on the operation portion 12 of endoscope 2 to carry out above-mentioned control.
In this way, for example as shown in figure 12, video processor 21 is generated the first image-region Cut1 and the second image-region 3D image that Cut2 is synthesized into simultaneously is shown on monitor 24.
In addition, in the above content, being said to the control example of the image calibration of the endoscope 2 as 3D endoscope It is bright, but the image calibration of 2D endoscope can certainly be carried out with utensil 4 is checked by image calibration.
Here, the multiple marks 41 for forming calibrating pattern 40 are formed to by various machinings, laser marking etc. It is illustrated in an example on the calibrating pattern face 34a of calibrating pattern plate 34.
As shown in figure 13, preferably multiple marks 41 pass through various machinery on the calibrating pattern face 34a of calibrating pattern plate 34 Work, laser marking etc. and be cut into multiple linear bumps to Formation cross-section triangle, and using the reflection of light and fire ( Color) generate calibrating pattern 40 contrast.
Add that is, being drawn in a manner of reaming the calibrating pattern face 34a for calibrating pattern plate 34 to multiple 41 progress line drawings of mark Work improves diffraction image caused by the reflection of illumination light as a result, due to making the reflex components of illumination light decay, thus It can accurately show profile.
Specifically, the illumination light being irradiated in multiple marks 41 is incident on as reflected light R from the observation window of endoscope 2 Objective lens optical system and form reflection image.
At this point, by the concave-convex depth d for being formed as linear section triangle that makes to be formed mark 41 relative to it is interior The distance L of the observation window of the front end 14 of sight glass 2 is that most preferably can clearly shoot the calibrating pattern based on multiple marks 41 40 contrast is able to carry out accurate image rectification.
In addition, can also be put by etching, line except multiple marks 41 are except through various machinings, laser marking Electric machining etc. and draw processing using line drawing to be formed.In addition, when forming multiple marks by chromium vapor deposition, black oxidation aluminium film etc. When 41, cause discoloration because of hydrogen peroxide sterilization, high pressure sterilization to become the desired comparison that can not obtain calibrating pattern 40 The structure of degree.
In addition, for example as shown in figure 14, when multiple marks 41 are simply formed as recess portion shape, vulnerable to based on illumination The influence of the diffraction of light makes range of the reflected light R beyond mark 41 and is incident on objective lens optical system from the observation window of endoscope 2 And reflection image is formed as expansion picture.
Also, such as shown in figure 15, even if forming the bumps for being formed as linear section triangle of multiple marks 41 Depth d it is excessively shallow, reflected light R also can beyond mark 41 range and be incident on objective lens optical system from the observation window of endoscope 2 And reflection image is formed as expansion picture.
In this way, when being detected in the state of multiple 41 expansions of mark, due to the coordinate of the intersection point P of calibrating pattern 40 It shifts, therefore the correction of accurate image can not be carried out.
Therefore, it as the structure for solving above-mentioned unfavorable condition, uses and is checked in utensil 4 in the image calibration of present embodiment, It is drawn by machining, laser marking etc. and using relative to the spacing distance L of endoscope 2 for the line drawing of optimal depth d To form bumps on calibrating pattern 40, so as to clearly shoot the contrast of calibrating pattern 40.
In addition, situation of the mark 41 in addition to being formed as threadiness, such as can also be as shown in figure 16, it is formed with multiple depth d Coniform recess portion and be formed on the calibrating pattern face 34a of calibrating pattern plate 34 by continuous dotted processing.
In addition, the calibrating pattern face 34a of calibrating pattern plate 34 can use following structure: to formation calibrating pattern 40 Implement the surface treatment such as blasting treatment, bead processing, chemical polishing, roller process and make to shine in part other than multiple marks 41 Mingguang City becomes scattering light to reduce reflection.
As described above, the endoscopic system 1 of present embodiment is such as flowering structure: have by machining, Laser marking etc. forms calibrating pattern 40 and image calibration corresponding with the sterilizations processing such as hydrogen peroxide sterilization, high pressure sterilization With utensil 4 is checked, the accurate image calibration of endoscope 2 can be carried out.Therefore, comprising as the calibration image calibration for checking utensil It is mutatis mutandis to check that the endoscopic system 1 including utensil 4 has sterilization patience and accurately calibrate image.
The invention recorded in above embodiment is not limited to this embodiment and variation, in addition, in implementation phase, Various modifications can be implemented within the scope of its spirit.Also, in the above-described embodiment, contain the various stages Invention, by the way that disclosed multiple structure important documents are carried out the extractable various inventions out of combination appropriate.
Even if for example, being also able to solve deleting several structure important documents from all structures important document shown in embodiment Above-mentioned project and in the case where obtaining above-mentioned effect, delete structure obtained by the structure important document can also be used as invention and It is extracted.
